The Life

And if he said it, I believed it, a good thing, because I’d been thinking that the hard part for me was trying to remember what was going on with the case, and now I didn’t have to worry about that.

Bernie sighed. “Guess it’s time for us to head for L.A.,” he said. “Not my favorite place, and it’s going to raise Bob’s bill, but what choice do we have?”

I didn’t know. Soon we were on a freeway, driving toward the sun, which was sinking in the sky and getting bigger and redder as it did. Loved seeing that! Bernie switched on the music. Billie Holiday and If You Were Mine, Roy Eldridge on trumpet. That trumpet did things to me, hard to describe. This was the life.

Good Morning! We just read the late posts from last night. So glad Kirby came back. We know who that Situation guy is that Kirby mentioned, but Barb doesn't waste her time on those shows (No Housewives of…..either).

Wonder what C & B will find in LA.

Question – Next week Barb wants to show someone her card from Rio, but how do you go back to that post after it is gone? In other words, how can you access an old post?

Barb: It is the the post of Sept. 12 "Great Country." In "Search Chetthedog.com" above, type in "treat." Then just click on comments. (You can find previous posts by typing in one of the tags. "Treat" was a tag for that post. I have Chet's site on my Google Reader.)

Good Morrrning everyone! She left the laptop on all night! I have been looking at all kinds of things that I don't have time to browse during the day. Next project, find out credit cards numbers. So many pretty things and no way to get them. Drat.

I wish I could go with Bernie and Chet. The only places I get to go are The Toenail Chopper, the vet, and rarely, The Big Orange Box where mom works. That is fun, because lots of people tell me how pretty I am (like I didn't know!). Only bad thing is that Dad sometimes forgets to put a mat in the buggy and it hurts my paws. Usually all I have to do is dance around a little and Dad remembers. I am very persuasive.(I do not know how to use the spelling thingy)

Wha!?… This whole Astrid casing is moving so fast I can’t keep up with it anymore…snort!..Tell me again why they are going to L.A.??…wait!….Could it be to track down Albie’s bodyguard Foster???… smack!

I think they are definitely on the trail of Foster — he is the key to the whole thing. Bet he has Astrid's suitcase as well! He's one bad dude, but his days are numbered with Chet and Bernie on the job. Orange jump-suit time, here we come.

Wlecome back Kirby. Don't know if there is time for you to get to Salem this weekend, but you would be a shoo-in to win the best ear competition if you can.

Rio. Definitely have the bow tie and the mustache ready for the big event.

Welcome back, Kirby T!! We know about life getting in the way of the blog. That happened to us when Mom and Dad decided to move. For almost two months we were only able to comment sporadically although Mom read Chet's posting daily. She just didn't have time to read all the posts. We almost missed the window of opportunity for a place on the quilt! Hope everything is better for your Mom.

Rio, the Astros are having a good run right now. That doesn't happen for us too often.

Egad. The Librarian and I have wasted 45 minutes of precious time she could have been doing laundry or washing dishes or vacuuming reading the posts from the last two days. (Har! That is a joke for the Librarian from me.) Although it was precious time I could have been napping. To catch up:

1. I do not like slim jims but am not opposed to their own day. I don't want a tuna day. I want tuna every day.

2. A Princess attitude is more important than hair extensions.

3. Kirby's ears have the right attitude too.

4. Wish I were with Dawson eating fish from Haida G– however you spell it.

5. I read that Sweet Land book too. I love the story about the people making the outhouse tip over heh heh.
